TheOverclocker: Issue 19
Issue 19 is here good people. It's bigger and better than any issue we've ever done before. We have everything from Z77 boards, to 680 GPUs. As usual, it's a little late, but all the work and passion we poured into it has hopefully made it worth the wait. Read it, love it and download it. It's free and always will be (we hope).

Nvidia has had the performance crown for single GPU graphics cards since the release of the GK104-based GeForce GTX 680, which was initially expected to be based on the non-existent GK100. The PCB layout, low TDP and GK104 moniker (GPUs ending in “4″ have generally been mid range cards, with the GF104 being the GTX 460 and the GF114 being the GTX 560) led us to believe that the GeForce GTX 680 was not to be the top silicon in the Kepler family. That has now been confirmed with both specifications and a die-shot of the GK110 made available earlier today.

Point of View – premier NVIDIA graphics partner – and manufacturer of Android tablets, notebooks and other hardware, launches today the factory overclocked POV GeForce GTX 680 EXO.
While the GeForce GTX 680 is already good for massive performance it’s never a bad thing to get the max out of your graphics card. The POV GeForce GTX 680 EXO runs over 10% faster on the base clock compared to the standard version. However, it’s important to know that the NVIDIA GPU Boost technology will crank up GPU Boost clock according to your needs. When loading up a heavy game, the card will over-overclock itself to an impressive speed of 1176 MHz! See the specs chart below for the further specifications.

Xilence, global acting manufacturer of PC cooling solutions and power supply units, announced today that the new power supply units of its XQ series are now available in retail. The gold-certified 750 Watt and the platinum-certified 850 Watt model will be immediately available. A 1000 Watt platinum version is expected to come on the market at the beginning of June.
The new XQ power supply unit range is an entirely new development. These silent running units break with the usual compact block shape, featuring a sloping side with two built-in 60 mm fans. This is the visible part of the new Direct Airflow concept, which ensures noise-free work at maximum performance. Inside, the cooling unit divides the power supply into two cooling zones monitored by temperature sensors. If the temperature exceeds a certain level in one of the zones, the fan of this zone will start to rotate slowly.
